Testimonials

During the High School Trail Corps program I was lucky enough to meet a few members of their staff, who I believe will make, and have made such a difference in the world. Their stories and knowledge make the hard work fun, and make one wonder where they haven’t been, or what they haven’t done. I feel honored to have been a part of this program, and to have met these amazing people.

I highly recommend Trail Corps because of the unique blend of fun and work experience it offers participants!

Rob Adams

Trail Corps taught me that I could make a difference. It fostered my love for nature into a passion for service, conservation, and sustainability, which in turn motivated me to continue the work I started at the Upper Valley Trails Alliance with the Student Conservation Association.
